Answer:

The required probability is 0.1.

Step-by-step explanation:

red balls = 3

yellow balls =  2

blue balls = 5

Selected balls = 5

Number of elemnets in sample space = 10 C 5 = 1260

Ways to choose 1 red ball and 4 other colours =  (3 C 1 ) x (7 C 4) = 105

Ways to choose 5 balls of other colours = 7 C 5 = 21

So, the probability is

\frac{105}{1260} + \frac {21}{1260}\\\\\frac{126}{1260}=0.1

Which equation represents the statement: Three times the sum of a number and 5 is –30?
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

3(n+5)=-30

Step-by-step explanation:

Three times the sum of a number and 5 is - 30

Vocabulary:

times = multiplication, represented with *

sum = addition, represented by +

unknown number = n

Three * the sum of a number and 5

The sum of a number and 5 is the same as saying n + 5

So we are multiplying 3 by n + 5

Because n is an unknown variable we have to separate the sum of n and 5 from being multiplied by 3 with parenthesis. We do this because if we want to multiply 3 by the sum of n and 5. If we put 3 * n + 5 we are only multiplying the unknown variable by 3 not including the 5 that is added to it.

So we get 3( n + 5 ) is -30

3(n+5)=-30 is the answer.

In the distribution, the first quartile,median and mean are 30.8,48.5 and 42.0 respectively. If the co efficient skewness is -0.
finlep [7]

Answer:

The third quartile is 56.45

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The first quartile, Q₁ = 30.8

The median or second quartile, Q₂ = 48.5

The mean, \bar x = 42.0

Coefficient of skewness = -0.38

The Bowley's coefficient of skewness (SK) is given as follows;

SK = \dfrac{Q_3 + Q_1 - 2 \times Q_2}{Q_3 - Q_1}

Plugging in the values, we have;

-0.38 = \dfrac{Q_3 + 30.8 - 2 \times 48.5}{Q_3 - 30.8}

Which gives;

-0.38×(Q₃ - 30.8) = Q₃ + 30.8 - 2 × 48.5

11.704 - 0.38·Q₃ = Q₃ - 66.2

1.38·Q₃ = 11.704 + 66.2 =  77.904

Q₃ = 56.45

The third quartile = 56.45.
